In the Wake of Heroes : Sailing's Greatest Stories Introduced by Tom Cunliffe Hardback

Edited by Tom Cunliffe

Hardback

Description

Tom Cunliffe is one of the biggest names in the sailing world - an internationally renowned journalist and speaker, and the go-to guru when the BBC wants a presenter for a new TV series about maritime interests. For the last ten years he has edited the `Great Seamanship' column of Yachting World magazine.

Each column features an extract from a classic yachting book that covers an aspect of great seamanship.

Tom introduces each extract by giving insightful background on the writer, their book and what makes their experience so worth reading about - and learning from. This book comprises Tom's 40 favourite extracts, and covers the entire scope of yachting concerns, from small-boat handling to yacht racing to long-distance cruising and exploring. Introduced in Tom's quintessential lively, engaging fashion, and illustrated with photos both from the original books and Tom's own archives, this beautifully packaged book contains a wealth of yachting wisdom and is a collection to be treasured.
